@ariella-newheart Thanks. 😀
Yeah that’s my favorite so far too.Day 7 ~ Enchanted
Because cloaks are cool and fun. (The reason she has no face is I didn’t want to draw one and wanted to keep it simple looking.)

I’ve been keeping up with this pretty well! These are my favorites so far: little fall-themed portraits of my MCs!
I don’t remember what feathers look like, lol.

SO….
Lessons learned.
1. Don’t assign yourself the herculean task of multiple figures when you have a time crunch.
2. Skin tones can end you. Or bring you to tears.
3. Dragon skin tones will make you run screaming into a field. Where you will curl up and cry.
4. I can’t even remember how far behind I am.
You do not have a soul. You have a body.
You are a soul. - C.S. LewisKudos and congrats to everyone for keeping on!
If it’s any consolation, I almost quit because the digital thing got the best of me!

You are a soul. - C.S. Lewis1) Very good advise! 😀
2) I luuuuv your picture. Makes me wonder what that guy getting hung upside down did!
"No matter how much it hurts, how dark it gets, or how hard you fall, you are never out of the fight."
@deeprun *winces* I understand. Digital art can be tricky. (Seriously, those skin tones!) Good job on that most recent picture. What was the prompt for it?
And yeah, I’m behind a few days, too. It’s mostly because I couldn’t think of anything to draw based on the prompts. I managed to do one today, though.

My thoughts exactly! xD
@ncstokes Those are cute! I like them. 🙂

@sageinthemeadow Those are lovely! I especially like how in “Swing” and “Enchanted” you made the objects stand out on the black background.

I love the intense black and white contrast. And your herringbone crosshatch! Very unique and provides a lot of depth and texture.
I’m over half done with manuscript these come from. Lesson being don’t insult a dragon!
The prompt was also to draw the characters with their “squad”.

You are a soul. - C.S. LewisJust wanted to jump in quickly and say, wow! You guys are doing a great job. 😀 I love all the pictures.
@ncstokes Those are cute.
@deeprun Yep. Those are some valuable lessons there, I think ran into some of them. (1&2 for this Inktober) That picture looks really good though. 🙂
@ariella-newheart oooh, it’s pretty.
@sageinthemeadow Never give up! Never surrender! 😀 Those are beautiful! I love them!
I am a bit curious about the skeleton horse in the enchanted picture though.Day 8 ~ Frail
*casually avoids attempting skin tones*
Day 9 ~ Swing
I… I can explain… But it might be funny to see what y’all make of it. XD (And yes, I am a bit behind…)

@catwing “Swing” appears to be some sort of Mad Hatter party where two of the subjects are casually sipping tea while the others are trying to keep from flying at each other’s throats. And there’s a kitty. Bonus points for the kitty. My initial thought was “mood swing” but I suspect I’m way off. xD

Inktober Day 12: “Dragon”
Inspired partially by the picture in my profile. 🙂

@ariella-newhart You’re mostly right and it is actually moodswing. XD
The cat is my cat, Shadow. Kay Waters is dressed up in a mad hatter outfit (she’s basically an imaginary friend character :P). Catwing in the middle is me. Then I had to design two characters for this picture, so there’s anxiety/overthinking on the left (she’s actually holding a plastic cup cause she REALLY doesn’t want to break anything. But you can’t really tell that.). On the right there’s anger/depression (she already broke her first cup so she has to use the one that Anxiety didn’t want). They don’t really want to attack each other. But since Anxiety engaged overthinking, Anger might try having a fit about whatever’s going on. So Anxiety would probably just create a cage around Anger. Meaning Anger just rages inside as Anxiety overthinks and theorizes… Meanwhile Shadow watches and gives me, “My human is crazy” looks and Kay waits for the right time to interject.
That’s basically it. 😛Yes. Bonus points for kitty. :3
Oooooh… That dragon looks cool. 😀
